🌟 A bold and beautifully unconventional Barbera—vibrant, juicy, and full of new-world swagger with old-world soul.
👁 In the Glass:
Bright ruby with a violet hue—lively and luminous.
👃 On the Nose:
Fragrant and expressive with notes of sour cherry, raspberry, and pomegranate. Underneath, hints of fresh herbs, earth, and subtle spice lend depth and intrigue.
👅 On the Palate:
Light to medium-bodied with signature Barbera acidity that brings freshness and lift. Plush red fruit meets a savoury core, with silky tannins and a soft, juicy texture. A whisper of oak adds roundness without distraction. The finish is vibrant, clean, and utterly moreish.
🍽 Food Pairing:
Perfect with charcuterie, wood-fired pizza, roasted vegetables, or duck with cherries. Its bright acidity makes it a versatile and food-friendly companion.
⏳ Ageing Potential:
Designed for early enjoyment, but will develop further nuance over 3–5 years.
✨ Why You’ll Love It:
Alpha Box & Dice’s Enigma is exactly what it promises—mysterious, magnetic, and endlessly drinkable. It’s Barbera like you’ve never seen it before: uniquely Australian, wildly charming, and impossible not to love. A rule-breaking red with real heart.
